Let's just be honest with ourselves right now, and save later disappointment. One of two things are going to happen.

1. This game will be harshly downgraded graphically on the Wii U.
2. This is not coming to the Wii U, but to Nintendo's next home console way later than we hope.

Pikachu's fur has gradience guys. At 60fps. There's going to be disappointment somewhere. Let's all just get the disappointment over with now.

But God damn, do these look good. Open them in another tab to appreciate them in their full glory. Never thought I'd say that a Pokemon game was graphically impressive.

Assuming the final game runs at 720p/60fps, i see no reason why this couldn't run on the WiiU fairly easily. Smash running at 1080p/60fps during the 8-player battles is a much more impressive technical achievement than this (which is incredibly limited in scale, like most 1v1 fighters, and appears to be sacrificing environment detail for more effects).
